Today we headed to Leavenworth, WA for the Oktoberfest. It was a 2 hour drive each way and it gave Stephanie and I opportunity to share more our lives and hearts with one another. I know I learned more about her history and I'm guessing she learned more about mine. There's something about being enclosed in a car that makes vulnerability and transparency feel safe. There's something about a drive in the car that makes it easier to process through something. It was a beautiful day all around but today I was grateful for car ride conversations.
I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
